My chickens seemed invincible- and unable to fire their machine guns. The foxes seemed to eventually just die off- but I think they just disappeared.

Second play through and the it was the foxes turn-

I couldn't buy more chickens and assumed this was an end game scenario. The pixel graphics are absolutely gorgeous. Maybe the audio could help cue when to prepare for the next wave, and when the wave is coming? I love the super jump from the flowers- and kinda got worried about whether my machine gunners were stuck underneath- but the pathfinding was on point and they clustered around if I was patient.
Overall- great job. I never knew for sure if I was protecting the hen house or myself- I bet on the hen house- and I couldn't figure out when to prepare or when to fight. I think you have an amazing start to what could be a stellar arcade platformer /rts or tower defense mashup- Hope you continue on this and I can't wait to see more! Thanks for the game!
